Phoebus
He had left Tephra for an undetermined amount of time. The volcano would always be his home, and it would always have his heart, but he knew he just needed to find something more. He couldn't live his life trapped within the kingdom forever. Papa had always told him about the great adventures he had had before settling down with Mom. He told of beautiful horses, strange places, and great battles. He told Phoebus of the magic Beqanna had to offer, and that while Papa didn't have any of his own, he hoped maybe one day the fairies would grant his son some.
It would have it that Diable Rouge's dreams for Phoebus would come true after his death. Almost as if by fate, in the middle of the night, the powers of Beqanna granted the young stallion with a permanent reminder of who he was inside.He was now the boy of fire, inside and out. A childhood nickname was now a reality, and his burning armor glowed orange in the darkness of the night. He would not know how to control it for awhile, but that didn't seem to matter now...

He smells of salty sea brine, ash, and sulfur. There is no doubting where the boy of fire had come from as he emerges from Tephra to the field, no doubting that he comes from the volcano, from the heat. A chill autumn breeze catches at his rusty mane, and the young stallion shivers slightly. He isn't used to the cold air of fall, and isn't prepared for the winter that will soon follow.
He continues through the field, further away from the land he had grown up in. Away from the comfort of Tephra's warmth and humidity. It would have it that "finding yourself" is a little more intimidating than he had previously thought, and as he leaves, he suddenly feels scared.
It doesn't stop him.
Nothing will.
Boy of Fire
Okay so this really fucking sucks but basically the first part is a little backstory and the second is him leaving. I'm horrible at intros so d:
